Jānis Zaltāns
Entrepreneur with over a decade of experience in startup development and technology-driven product creation. I’ve co-founded and led ventures across various sectors, including digital identity, document management, fintech, data governance and SaaS solutions. My focus is on early-stage development from idea to MVP and market validation, working closely with users and industry partners to build solutions that deliver real value.
I bring broad experience in fundraising through both traditional venture capital and alternative financing channels. Over the years, I’ve built a strong investor network across Europe and the US and have a deep understanding of what it takes to turn a concept into an investable opportunity.
As a mentor, I support teams in structuring their development path, identifying the right market fit, and crafting a clear value proposition. I’m particularly interested in helping research-based innovations successfully transition into scalable, growth-ready businesses.
